Share the principals. Share the words. Keep them strong. Repeat them often. Prepare to rebuild, and get back everything we lose.

Someday, far from now, or quite close, some of us will have to be the rememberers, the monks, the grandmothers teaching the old, powerful words.
If it takes long enough, some of us may creep into a ruined Capitol full of broken statues and whisper the words and remember what it was like before.

KINDNESS is an act of rebellion...
Be gracious and grateful and use your privilege to help those around you. While Donald Trump and JD Vance are spewing contempt, racism and misogyny, be the safe and brave space friends can rely upon. At this point, kindness is an act of rebellion. Be kind. We know what is needed, and we know how to do this. We have been here before.

Ken-Dogger: Hey there Theo, what are we going to get into today?
Theo: Dude, this is cool, you're going to start doing stuff again.
KD: I gotta keep going, I'm searching for some JOY.
T: Heretofore, you have found JOY in many things. You're going to find it again.
KD: I think so too, might be tempered JOY initially, but we'll get it full-blown, won't we?
T: Yeppers, Dogger, Yeppers.
Agreed, but I'm thinking it will still filter to "Why aren't they talking about Trump?"
I'm seeing a lot of take-out in our future.
So, I was thinking about restaurant behavior once the new regime comes into power.
Are you going to feel comfortable having hushed conversations in a public place?
It's not being paranoid if there ARE peeps out there trying to ruin your day.
A protest vote to trump racism...SMART FREAKIN MOVE
I had a chance to save the USA, but I thought it was more important to register my small distaste of various policy positions.
Hottest on record...trend likely to continue given new regime doesn't believe it is happening.
